Word AssociationThese brain teasers rely on your ability to recognize groups of common attributes. For each of these puzzles you'll need to figure out why the words or letters are grouped as they are. Sometimes you will be asked to pick the odd-one-out or to place a new word into the correct group.
In each of the following, choose a word which you think will best match the rest.
(a) AGE, DATE, KIND, FULLY, POWER
RAP, STRUT, BULLY, HOOD, CRIME, YEAR
(b) HINT, DIRT, COSY, FORT
KNOT, PART, EPIC, ROUT, NAVY
(c) MANOEUVRING, CAULIFLOWER, ACCENTUATION, BEHAVIOURISM, GREGARIOUS
MANUSCRIPT, CAUTIONED, MATRICULATION, OBSTREPEROUS, REORIENTATION
Hint(a) a race
(c) all have something
Answer(a) HOOD - each word can be prefixed by the word 'man' to form another word.
(b) KNOT - all the words have their letters in alphabetical order.
(c) CAUTIONED - all the words contain all five vowels
